OT Dear bp: The problem was that the wife came in near the end of the discussion and basically just heard the name "Sysco". I had explained to the husband what CSCO does. Being technologically illiterate, when the two of them discussed things later, what I had said got translated [with their understanding of things] into food distribution networks. Routers=trucking distribution hubs--who knows. Fortunately, they actually made some money. Unfortunately, they still have no interest in spending the time to learn about or follow the market. If their broker retires or dies, they are up the creek without a paddle--he has done very, VERY well by them. With all the investment information on-line to assist them? First one of them has to be convinced that buying a computer is a good idea! Regards, Lynn
